What you can expect

From the moment you arrive at a traditional and artisanal bakery in San Miguel de Allende, you'll dive into the world of bread as a professional baker experiences it. Amidst the aromas of fresh dough and a hot oven, you'll discover the workspace, utensils, and techniques that bring colonial-inspired Mexican bread to life.

The experience is totally hands-on and immersive. We'll guide you step by step, and you'll learn how to make the famous Mexican conchas from scratch, working the dough, understanding fermentation, shaping each piece, and preparing them for baking. You'll also make delicious, light, aromatic, and delicate sponge cakes from an ancient Mexican tradition, inspired by historical recipes from old Mexican monasteries and convents, adapted to local ingredients.

During this class, you'll discover how baking came to Mexico in colonial times and how these techniques were transformed over time to create unique flavors and textures that are now part of the country's culinary identity. You don't need to be an expert baker; the class is designed for all levels and for those who enjoy learning to make bread with their own hands.

While the bread is baking, we'll share stories, tips, and trade secrets with you in a friendly and authentic atmosphere. Finally, the most anticipated moment: you'll taste your own freshly baked bread, accompanied by delicious Mexican chocolate prepared on the spot, closing the experience with flavors, aromas, and memories you'll take with you forever.
